GURU MEETS WITH BRITISH POLITICAL LEADER

 

LONDON — As part of his European peace tour, Sri Chinmoy met with the Speaker of the British House of Commons, Bernard Weatherill, on Oct. 12.

After speaking and meditating with the Master, the Speaker took him on a personal tour of the British Parliament. Afterwards, he wrote Sri Chinmoy a letter saying “how much I appreciated the time we spent together and what you said to me.”

In 1986 the Speaker had invited Sri Chinmoy to the Palace of Westminster to inaugurate a program of meditation for Members of Parliament.
